Benissimo’s, Corte Madera, September 2, 2010 Spontaneous Live Recording

Featuring Jeff Derby on piano, Jason Carr on bass and Tim Carr on drums. Recorded by my wife on her iphone, with lots of noise from the audience especially my baby girl Gianna (23 months). It randomly stops playing before the song ends, but you get the idea. This was a sightread piece called, “The Loop,” by Chick Corea. Great tune!
